How many cards in the T206 set?
Within the "Lucky 7" thread, it was asserted that the Ty Cobb Portrait Red Background with the Ty Cobb back is the 525th card of the T206 set. It was further asserted that the Ty Cobb Portrait Red Background was the fifth Ty Cobb card in the T206 set.
Looking for the board's opinion on this subject. Last edited by t206hound; 03-05-2016 at 05:36 PM.

With all due respect to Ted... I believe the Cobb Cobb card has been accurately recognized as a totally separate issue one unto itself. If one were to categorize any white bordered tobacco card with brown type such as T215 type one and T2 13 type one as t206... Then I could see categorizing this cobb as a T206... But I would consider it a back variation as the red front is identical to the others .

Isn't this like debating the top end speed of a Ferrari? Or the upkeep of a horse worthy of the Kentucky derby? I doubt the vast majority of the people here will ever be in the earnest hunt for a Cobb/Cobb. I know I won't, unless I hit powerball ...

Because I am a back collector, I believe you would need to have all the cards that comprise the T206 set, in other words, the number in excess of 6000 cards.

If it's a T206 in the first place, and I have no problem with that, then it's just another back, however rare. 524.

I understand the debate over whether or not it's really a t206. I don't get the debate over it being the 525th card if no other back counts as it's own card.

I don't count the Cobb as a T206
